http://lustrelux.com/2014/04/18/stila-in-the-know/#commentsFri, 18 Apr 2014 18:05:40 +0000http://lustrelux.com/?p=671This is my first Stila purchase! How exciting, right? I even splurged on a palette! What sold me on this particular palette is that they are all matte. Finally! I just wanted a palette with no useless silver shimmer in it, and here it is! Check out my video tutorial using this lovely palette!

Not only does this palette not include a useless shimmer I will never wear, it includes an eyeliner that I will actually use! Score! The eyeliner is a creamy deep smoky grey which I am actually loving. It really ties the whole palette together, and it’s not a thoughtless black that they just threw in. Cheers to that!

The shade of this “smudge stick” is “Honeymoon”. It is very lovely and creamy! Not a huge fan of the twisty pencils, though…

I must apologize for how sickly my skin looks in the swatches pictured above. Not sure what’s going on there. Anyway. These shadows have a nice, creamy texture that blend surprisingly well. I am really loving every single shade. “Air” and “Wind” are perfect for highlighting under the brow or brightening up the lid. “Wind” is just a tad more beige than “Air” is. I love variety! “Clay” and “Desert” are some seriously magical blending shades! I would also use them if I was doing a really soft look in my crease with minimal eyeliner. I believe that the previous sentence is a fragment and grammatically incorrect, but it’s too hard to fix. You know what I mean.

Now, THESE colors are no joke!! SO pigmented and so gorgeous. What really caught my eye about this palette was “Fire”. It is a beautiful burnt orange. It reminds me of “Persia” from Nars. I wasn’t quite ready to drop $30 on a single orange shadow from Nars, so I figured this $36 palette would curb my craving. The Nars shade is more red than “Fire” is. I love sweeping it on my bottom lash line. “Driftwood” and “Rain” are SO pretty! Neutral-y cool taupe shades. When I first looked at “Smoke”, I honestly didn’t think I would wear it. Until I swatched it! I had no idea it had some deep blue in it. “Ebony” is pretty much a muted standard black, nothing that special about it, but I’ll take it.

For $36, Stila really created a lovely, versatile palette. I don’t love it’s packaging. I feel like I lose a lot of product between the cracks of the different colors. I know that sounds anal and absurd, but I wish it looked a little bit more form-fitting (for a lack of better term). Other than that, I would actually repurchase this thing! I rarely say that about palettes. Nice one, Stila!

Thu, 17 Apr 2014 02:45:51 +0000http://lustrelux.com/?p=646This palette is a pale girls dream. Naked 3 came out last year, and yeah, I’m a bit late. Not being a huge fan of Naked 1 or Naked 2, I originally decided to pass on the this one. Then one day it clicked…I love rosey taupey shades! I’m obsessing over every single shade in this palette- which is rare. You can create some seriously romantic looks using this palette. NOTE TO SELF: EVERY COLOR WILL TURN PURPLE ONCE TOUCHING YOUR SKIN.

Click below to watch my quick tutorial using the Naked 3 palette!

I live for Urban’s eyeshadow formulas. You really can’t do any better (Well you can, but that’s not the point). What I love about this palette is that there are no duplicate shades like Naked 1 and Naked 2 had. It makes it truly original. They did a really good job putting together these shades, all the shimmery colors complement the matte shades and vice versa.

I love all these shades. I have a particularly difficult time working with “Dust”, however. This shadow has a lot of loose silver glitter in it and makes it somewhat difficult to work with. All the other shades are more metallic than glittery, if that makes any sense. When I apply UD’s shimmer shades, I find that applying it with my finger makes it less messy. If I want it to really pop, I add a spritz of Mac’s Fix+ to my brush (or finger) before putting it on. That creates a sticky base for the shadow to stick to and also makes it shine more.

Here is the second half of the Naked 3 palette. “Nooner” may be one of my new top favorite blending shadows. Seriously, they better come out with this in a single size soon! “Factory”, “Mugshot”, and “Darkside” start to resemble Naked 1, but they still look great with the rest of the palette. “Blackheart” was a gorgeously deep, rich burgundy brown to add to this palette. I am thrilled that they didn’t just throw a black shadow at the end and call it a day. It has pinkish sparkles in it (which disappear if you blend it out). If you choose to apply this color wet, the sparkles stick around and are like, SO pretty.

This palette contains yet another brush that I will most likely not use for eyeshadow, however, I think it would be great to use for concealer!

I kind of cheated in my tutorial I posted on YouTube, since I added a shadow not included in the palette. Sue me. I got these two UD shadows when I purchased Naked 3, and you can’t tell me that “Sellout” isn’t the perfect color to add to any Naked 3 look! I love how bright it is, I wish the palette included this color. It just belongs! Not only that, but I think Naked 3 needs a brighter light color that isn’t so….pink. When used with Mac’s Fix+, it is like an ultra sexy situation on your eye.

]]>Inglot Haul+Reviewhttp://lustrelux.com/2014/04/05/inglot-haulreview/
Sat, 05 Apr 2014 04:04:50 +0000http://lustrelux.com/?p=571If there’s one thing I can count on to make me happy- it’s high quality, inexpensive makeup. One of the many reasons I love Inglot’s products is that they are sold at a fair price while still giving you that fancy department store feel.

We all know it is more exciting to buy makeup when it comes in tiny little boxes. After all, don’t you love coming home and unwrapping everything like it’s Christmas morning? It’s an experience. Not just an experience, it’s sacred!Over the years I have been building my collection of Inglot products and so far nothing has disappointed me. Let me share with you all the products I love!

Here is a video review of all my Inglot products. Down below will be tons of swatches!

Inglot implements a unique shopping experience. They give you a magnetic tray and you shop by placing each individual shadow you want on to the tray. Sneaky, isn’t it? By the time you’re done you have a tray full of shadows. Don’t worry, they’re only $7 each! You can leave with a new pallet full and you didn’t break the bank. I love that feeling….Sigh….

Here are some photos and swatches of the shadows I have (and some are in the Inglot pallets).

I have had this urge to buy taupey/rosey toned eyeshadows. I wanted some new blending shades to add to my collection. I think I was able to find a few…

As you can probably tell by looking at these swatches, they are very pigmented! Not only are they pigmented, but they have a creamy texture to them. I’ve noticed that less expensive eyeshadows tend to be chalky instead of creamy. Used over a good base (like Mac’s Soft Ochre Paint Pot) these shadows have a great color payoff.

Inglot also offers a plethora of pigments. I’ve noticed that their shiny pigments tend to be more like flakes than pigments. I’m not sure what it is, but it’s strange! They are really gorgeous but tend to be a tad more difficult to work with. I would highly recommend Inglot’s Duraline (or a mixing medium) if you plan on using their pigments!

I think that’s all the Inglot eyeshadows I have….I think. Now let me show you some liners. I accidentally got this liquid liner at IMATS. I didn’t order it (I would never intentionally purchase brown liquid liner) but there was way too much chaos to try and return it. After inspecting it- it seems like a nice liner! Too bad it isn’t black.

I made a few more impulse purchases at IMATS including multiple blue eyeliners. Why? To use as lipliner, of course!

Between all these liners, I liked the texture of the Colour Play Eyeliner best. It was the creamiest and most similar to a kohl liner. The middle one (AMC liner) was my least favorite. The texture kinda reminded me of using a crayon to draw on my skin. Difficult and a minimal color payoff. The middle swatch below took many, many swipes to get that color.

I don’t need to say much. Other than this is my most FAVORITE gel liner…of all time.

Another product I love from Inglot is their blushes. Only $11 for the freedom pan and $12 for the …..not freedom pan. I love the texture of the blushes and the pigmentation.

Inglot’s lipsticks have a great quality. However, the colors they have are kind of…strange. Of course, I’m okay with strange. Sometimes. Yes I like my blue and purple lips. When it comes to a neutral lip, I just don’t think Inglot has it! Their range of colors is strange to me. All very very light or very very pink. If that’s your thing..then go!

Ihave a couple of their lip glosses. One is an AMC strange, strange color. The other is a lovely pale pink creamy gloss! I love the Sleeks Cream formula, however I wasn’t in love with most of their shades in the line.

Overall, I love Inglot’s products. Why wouldn’t I? Great shadows, my FAVORITE gel liner, and strange colored lipsticks. Inglot doesn’t have a ton of stand alone boutiques at the moment, but they are popping up inside Macy’s everywhere!

Wed, 26 Mar 2014 23:16:22 +0000http://lustrelux.com/?p=575Finding high quality cosmetics with cute packaging can brighten up any girls day. Over the years I have acquired MANY different products from Hard Candy. Here is a review of all my favorites!

Although all Hard Candy products are available exclusively at Wal-Mart, they have the quality of a department store cosmetic line. Each time I go to Wal-Mart (which is pretty rare) I make sure to stock up on the latest Hard Candy products. Here are reviews of some of my favorites!

Welcome Matte Mattifying Powder– $6

I have had my Welcome Matte powder for about a year. I switched over to this product after using Bare Minerals Mineral Veil. I can’t tell a difference! I dust this on after doing my makeup and it keeps my t-zone shine free all day. Love!

Plumping Serum Volumizing Lip Gloss $6

I have around 5 different shades of the available 12 (I believe) shades of this gloss. Obsessed! If you love a sheer plumping gloss- this is SO for you. The colors are gorgeous and they provide a pretty tint and shimmer to plain lips or over lipstick!

Kal-eye-descope Baked Eyeshadow Duo– $6

These shadows are INCREDIBLE. I love smoking out my eyes with the darker shade and packing the lighter color on my lid to brighten it up! These duos have just the right amount of shimmer-(no chunky glitter!). There are a total of six different duos available for a fantastic price of $6! (OMG!)

Below: Swatch of High Maintenance

All Glossed Up– $5

I always thought it was weird that a lip gloss could be in the form of a stick- so I had to try it. It was pretty cool! These add a sheer wash of glossy color to your lips. Love! Here is a swatch of “Cupcake”

Glamoflauge– $6

I know I can’t stop talking about this stuff- but why wouldn’t I? Full coverage concealer for six dollars? Hello! I’m hoping to try extreme contour and highlighting with these in the future! Even comes with a concealer pencil which I love to use around my lips when I wear bold lipstick.

Lite Bright Whipped Concealer- $6

These whipped concealers are truly brightening. I love using them around my eyes to add a beautiful highlight to any dark circles! I also made a video on my Youtube channel for doing an extreme highlight/contour look.

Blush Crush Baked Blush-$7

I only have one shade in the blush (Honeymoon) but it is gorgeous. It is a pale pink and I prefer to use it as a highlight because it has an incredible finish to it! I love baked/marbled products. If you are looking for a soft blush with a shimmery sheen then look no further.

Below is a picture of “Honeymoon” in the sunlight.

Overall, I am really loving Hard Candy products and I will probably be a forever fan! You can’t beat the price and quality. I am looking forward to trying out their Spring 2014 Collection and updating you on new great finds! Click here to check out all of their products on their site!

What are your favorite Hard Candy products?

]]>Favorite Concealershttp://lustrelux.com/2014/03/06/favorite-concealers/
Thu, 06 Mar 2014 00:09:51 +0000http://lustrelux.com/?p=512Concealer can make or break your whole facial situation. In order to find the right one for you, it’s important to figure out what you need. Color correction (hyperpigmentation), dark circles, highlighting, blemishes, rosacea, dark marks, etc are all various reasons for us using concealer.

Pictured below is a simple color wheel. A color wheel can help you understand why there are green concealers in this world. Across from green is…RED! That’s right, that means that if you have red, you’ll want to cover it with green to completely erase it. Now, it doesn’t mean you should walk around looking like Shrek.

That was just an example to show you how this thing works. While I have redness in my skin, I don’t cover it with green. I prefer to use a soft yellow concealer if I have some redness I need to erase. If you are looking to cover dark under-eye circles, check what’s across from blue/purple. I spy salmon! Ok, looks more like orange but I’m telling you to use salmon. Trust, it works!

If you have dry skin –> Girl, I would run with a softer, runnier concealer. Liquid-y concealers will help to prevent buildup around any dry areas.

If you have oily skin –> Girl, most concealers will work for you, but look for a longer wearing one. It will help to hold up through the day, a thicker formula would work great for you.

If you have normal skin–> Girl why are you even asking? Wear whatever you want!

Why I love it: Perfect formula for those that have normal to dry skin. Now, it still works if you have oily skin, but for those of us that need a concealer that won’t build up around dry areas- this is it! It is liquid-y enough so it helps to smooth over any rough patches or flakes. Full coverage to cover any dark marks, red marks, or under eye circles. Lasts all day long & doesn’t settle into fine lines- need I say more? This stuff is my FAV.

Mac Studio Finish SPF 35- $18

Why I love it: So before I had dry skin, I had oily skin. This was my favorite concealer during those times in my life. This stuff is OPAQUE. If you are looking to cover a blemish, scar, or dark marks- then look no further. While this stuff is opaque, it goes on light. I wouldn’t recommend using this around the eye area as it tends to sink into the finer lines because it is thicker. If you like to sculpt your brows with a concealer, this is a great concealer for that. While I would not recommend using this concealer if you have dry flaky skin, it does do a good job of warming up and melting on to dryer areas.

Mac Pro Longwear -$19

Why I love it: This concealer is very similar to the Select Cover-Up, but it dries a bit differently on your skin. It kinda smells like paint, and similar to paint, it tightens up a little as it dries. The reason for this could of course be the fact that it is Longwear, and it is supposed to last up to 15 hours. While I have no problem with Select Cover-Up lasting all day, if your skin is more on the oily/combo side I could see the Longwear working best for you. Be careful when applying it, it dries fast and tight! That and the freakin’ pump gives you enough product to cover your entire face. Great full coverage concealer.

Hard Candy Glamoflauge- $6

Why I love it: Did you see that it’s only $6? I’m sure you did. Though you have to brave the trenches of Wal-Mart (even their website sucks) to get this stuff, it’s worth it! For my girls with normal to oily skin, this is a no brainer! I love how creamy this formula is. You could probably conceal your entire face with just a dot! A little really goes a long way here, and it is opaque. If you have dry, flaky, skin- I would stay away from this particular formula. It is very thick and builds up around dry skin. Only downside is there are only 5 shades. The lighter colors are fairly cool (pinker) and it appears there little to none for those with deeper skin tones. It comes with a concealer pencil, which so far I have only used to line the outer edge of my lips to clean up a bold lipstick.

Hard Candy Lite Bright- $6

Why I love it: For those of you into extreme contour and highlighting, Lite Bright would be a great addition to your highlighting arsenal. The formula is creamy, (semi-thick like Glamoflauge) but it is BRIGHT! I have the “Medium” shade and it is lighter than my “Light” Glamoflauge. It will conceal while it highlights and brightens. If you are looking to brighten up around the eye area, I would highly recommend this product!

What are some of your favorite concealers and why? I would love to try them!

Wed, 26 Feb 2014 05:07:36 +0000http://lustrelux.com/?p=526It probably took me around 6 years to figure out how to do my brows in a way that I actually liked. Let’s face it- it’s not easy! Check out my brow video for a brief tutorial! If you prefer reading… here are my tools I use to hook up my brows. (My video is much better though!)

I LIVE for a good brow pomade! I am so glad Anastasia came out with some pomades so I could find the perfect color instead of using Dipdown by Mac. (Dipdown is an eyeliner from Mac NOT a brow pomade/gel)

I had wanted to try Anastasia’s products but I wasn’t really interested in a pencil or duo product. Luckily the pomades came out and now I am a lifelong customer! There is SO much product in here and I have to use so little, so this stuff will literally last me forever. If you use Dipdown in your brows right now, Chocolate is a bit softer and less warm, so it was a better fit for me.

I use the worlds teensiest brush for applying it. Seriously this thing is teensy!! I use an angled liner brush and I prefer a skinny one because I have hella skinny brows!!!

Brush pictured is from Crown Brushes – click link here to look at this brush!

There are four things that I look for in an eyebrow brush:

Stiffness (stiffer the better!- not crazy stiff though)

Thickness (For me, I need a super thin brush for my baby brows)

Angled (Must be angled-typically a liner brush)

Synthetic (Synthetic fibers tend to be a bit stiffer but softer on the skin than natural bristles)

Some basic tips for you if you feel like your brows are NOT doing the most right now:

Use less product!

Using a liner brush will help you get a more defined line than a pencil

Trim those thangs! (Or use a clear brow gel!)

Use a concealer or brow wax to clean up the edges of your brows

Use a lighter color if you feel like your brows stand out too much

I hope this post helps and thanks for tuning in!

]]>Bellami Hair Extensionshttp://lustrelux.com/2014/02/16/bellami-hair-extensions/
http://lustrelux.com/2014/02/16/bellami-hair-extensions/#commentsSun, 16 Feb 2014 18:30:47 +0000http://lustrelux.com/?p=401If you’re like me, once your hair grows to a certain length- it just stops after that. It doesn’t necessarily stop, it just grows unevenly and looks gangly and gross. I’ve always wanted full luscious ponytails and now I can finally do it! I have never wanted extensions before, I am more of a messy bun kinda chick, but now everyone has them! There are so many options out there. I did my research and purchased the brand I felt would be the highest quality for a reasonable price.

Click here to watch my video!

Just to give you a little background info on my hair, I have long naturally brown hair. It is around 18 inches in my longest layer, and I have a ton of layers. Seriously, a ton. Last year I decided to go caramel ombre, and now I am almost full-on blonde! With dark roots, of course. I finally caved in and got the Bellami Hair Extensions!

The grams refers to the weight of the hair. The more grams, the more hair! At first I figured all I needed is the Piccolina set, it’s not like I’m trying to look like a freakin’ mermaid or anything. So, I got the Piccolina set. Then I thought “I’m buying hair EXTENSIONS, shouldn’t they be longer than my natural hair? I mean, I can cut them if I want to, right? I could always use 20 extra grams.” Yes, those were all the thoughts that went through my head which lead me to canceling my order for the 18″ extensions and ordering the 20’s. Bellami was very quick in their responses and in canceling and refunding my order. They called me things like “Love” and “Gorgeous”. I thought that was a bit odd but I can’t complain, you know? I am fabulous.

Since my hair was on backorder, and got backordered again, I had to wait a few grueling weeks prior to getting my package of weave. It finally arrived! Your Bellamis will arrive in a USPS envelope, and tucked neatly inside is your package of Bellami! I ordered mine in Dirty Blonde, thinking it would be a perfect match to my hair.

Package as you will receive it in the mail

There is a section on the bottom of the package where you can open it to match it to your hair without breaking the main seal. This “tester” hair is actually one of your 2 clip wefts, not just a generous sample.

I tried to take a TON of photos in natural lighting so you can see the quality, thickness, and color. This was before I did anything to them. The Bambina set comes with 10 total wefts (DANG! I can’t fit that many on my head at once!) To see an awesome comparison of all the different weights, click here.

Close-up of the entire bundle fresh out of the package- hella hair bro!

3-clip 20″ weft

This was a 4-clip weft, I couldn’t fit the whole thing in one shot!

Close up of one of the clips- they’re secure!

Here are the 4- 1.5″ wefts. I can’t really see myself having a need for these ones…so far…

Here are the 2 -3 clip wefts

Quality: The verdict of these extensions: Wow! They are ultra thick, the ponytail of the Bellami bundle is thicker than my ponytail! How sad! Well, that’s why I bought them. The color was definitely different than I was expecting. Not saying that in a bad way, but it was just more…beige. That’s all my hairdresser kept saying when she was referring to it…”aren’t they just so beige? Vickie, come look at these extensions, come see how beige they are.” “Wow, those are really beige.” I couldn’t put my finger on it when I stared at them at home and couldn’t figure out why they didn’t match my hair, but I do now. They’re beige. Similar to my post about foundation, beige means it’s rosier. I’m not saying it’s pink hair, but it had a champagne tint to it. Even though I use purple shampoo to get rid of all the brassy orange tones in my blonde, my hair sure felt brassy next to these extensions.

Color: My fab hairdresser lifted my hair (bleached?) and toned it again so I could match the extensions better. She suggested that we did not do anything to the extensions as it was most likely not virgin hair. She had some horror stories for me regarding bleaching and toning other sets of extensions, and since they were so processed already, they turned green! So I decided to again, change my life to work with the extensions. They blend beautifuly now!

Cut: These extensions were so thick! And because they were so thick, they were very blunt on the bottom. Since I have super layered hair, I had to get them texturized. Originally I was thinking of cutting an inch or two off, but she just ending up adding some texture with a razor and it worked wonders. I would recommend buying these extensions with the intent of getting them texturized, unless you have 0 layers.

Sat, 08 Feb 2014 03:25:43 +0000http://lustrelux.com/?p=364Watch my video review on YouTube of the NYX “Turn the Other Cheek” palette! But if the sound of my voice repulses you- scroll down to read my written review…

How cute is this palette?! I HAD to pick it up at IMATS this year. This palette retails for $25 but I was able to grab it for $19. This typically isn’t something I would buy, but there was a weird gravitational pull sucking me in and I couldn’t break it. Equipped with 15 eyeshadows, 4 blushes, and 3 highlighters, this thing is seriously all inclusive. The shadows are gorgeously neutral. Eight of these shadows are matte and the other 7 are soft satiny shades with touches of shimmer. What’s the verdict? I loved all the matte shades, and I DID love all the shimmer shades ….on my finger. Until they touched my eye, that is. Once I put a brush to them all that shimma fell on my face. I know, I was disappointed too. I think if you used a synthetic brushed and packed it on your lid over a NYX jumbo pencil, you might have more luck with maintaining the color and shimmer. Here are some swatches of the 15 shades of shadows, the first 8 are the matte shades and the last 7 are shimmers.

The blushes really are gorgeous, but on the brighter side. If you use a really small amount, I think it could work on fairer skin. I think these blushes were made for the ones with the tanner skin tones, though. They definitely pop! I had some difficulty getting my brush into the blush, as I didn’t want to get highlighter all over the place.

These highlights…..OOOOO I love! Beautiful. All of them are ultra soft and very silky.

So- is it worth it? Totally! If you’re the type of girl that can fit all your makeup in one bag, (I never understood how that works!) then this is for you! Just pop this in your suitcase along with a few essentials and you have a ton of different looks all in one compact for your whole trip! For people like me who bring an entire duffel bag of makeup everywhere no matter what, it’s still worth it! Nyx has some great products for a great price. Overall, this is definitely a keeper.

Fri, 31 Jan 2014 00:38:49 +0000http://lustrelux.com/?p=218Being an official @makeupbyanna fan, I couldn’t have been more excited when she started her own line of cosmetics. I was waiting for my IMATS trip to pick up a few glosses, lipsticks, and lashes. I always prefer buying new products in person rather than online, but sometimes you have no choice! Dose of Colors had one of the best booths I have seen for a newer makeup line. Not only that, but she had some awesome artists there helping her out! Everyone looked so fabulous.

For starters, the packaging is so cute! Every girl is a sucker for a cute box, and you know it’s good when you wait after a few times of using it to actually throw it away.

Left: Purple Fusion Right: Petals- Retail $15.00

I had to pick up these two shades, I live for cool pinks and purples. I love that this purple is blue based and not red based like many of the other purple shades out there. This is a TRUE violet ultra pigmented purple! The pink is a gorgeous pale pink with blue undertones. The formula of this lip gloss is incredible. You would think they are super sticky looking at them, but nope! These guys are super buttery and pigmented without the stick! WOOHOO that means half my hair won’t be stuck to my face all day!

Dose of Colors Purple Fusion on mah lips:

I only got one lipstick this time but I wish I got more. Dark Secrets is a gorgeous deep red based purple. I wore this lipcolor with no lipliner (I forgot my Nightmoth!) and it still looked great! Lasted long and went on super creamy. One application and I had full, opaque coverage. (No having to rub it over and over again!) You can trust with Dose of Colors lip products that you get what you see!

Dark Secrets- Retail $16.00

Here is me rockin’ Dose of Colors Dark Secrets:

I made an impulse buy and bought a pair of lashes. I typically only wear Ardell Wispies because I prefer a thinner band and longer lashes. I decided to grab a pair of the Dose of Colors “Double Dose” because I was so impressed with her other products. What I love most about these is how thin the band is. If lashes are not comfortable on me, they will be gone in an hour. The band on these was easily bendable and lightweight! Anna told us that she made these bands longer so that they extend all the way across your eye. I’ve got rather large ojos and they go all the way across!

Lashes: Double Dose- Retail $14.00 (Do you see what it says?!- “These lashes have been know to cause extreme sexiness” OMG I die!)

I’m looking forward to using more of the Dose of Colors line…and what I’m REALLY hoping for is that Anna comes out with some lipliners! I’m crossing my fingers that it’s in the works! With all the new “online-only” makeup lines popping up all over the place, it feels great to be able to buy products that are true to what you see on their website. Not only that, but I will continue to buy from Dose of Colors because Anna is such a sweet, humble person!
